Oyama , Japan Received 30 July 2003; accepted 15 October 2003 Available online 5 January 2004 Abstract Due to its unique combination of ecological and personal safety, carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), a natural fluid, is becoming one of the most promising alternative refrigerants for air-conditioning and refrigeration systems. This paper presents an experimental study of boiling heat transfer and pressure drop of CO 2 flowing in a multi-port extruded aluminum test section, which had 10 circular channels, each with an inner diameter of 1.31 mm. CO 2 was heated by hot water flowing inside copper blocks that were attached at both sides of the test section. Temperatures at the outer surface of the test section were measured using 24 K-type thermocouples embedded in the upper and lower surfaces along the length. Local heat fluxes were measured using twelve heat flux sensors to obtain the local enthalpies, temperatures and heat transfer coefficients. Bulk mean temperatures of CO 2 at the inlet and outlet of the test section were measured using two K-type thermocouples. The measurements were performed for pressures ranging from 3.99 to 5.38 MPa, inlet temperatures of CO 2 from )3.08 to C, heat fluxes from 10.1 to 20.1 kw/m 2, mass velocities from to kg/m 2 s, and vapor quality from 0.0 to 1.0. The results indicate that pressure drop along the test section is very small, two-phase CO 2 flow exhibits a higher heat transfer coefficient than that of the single-phase liquid or vapor flow. It is also shown that the mass velocity and the applied heat flux have significant effects on flow boiling heat transfer characteristics. The measured heat transfer coefficients were compared with correlations reported in the literature and large discrepancies are observed. Ó 2003 Elsevier Ltd.

Introduction Although CFCs and HCFCs are banned owing to the potential global warming and ozone layer depleting characteristics, it is uncertain whether some alternative refrigerants such as HFCs and HFC blends (man-made substances) would cause other environmental problems. Therefore, it is preferable to use natural substances which are already present in nature and do not involve unknown hazards. Carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), a non-toxic and non-flammable natural fluid with a zero ODP (ozone depletion potential) and a negligible GWP (global warming potential) [1], will become one of the most promising refrigerants, and provide a safe, economical, and cost-effective natural solution. The promising applications of CO 2 refrigeration systems include automotive air conditioning, heat pumps, residential/commercial air conditioning and various refrigeration areas [2,3]. In traditional air conditioning systems, both the heat absorption and heat rejection processes undergo under subcritical conditions. In CO 2 air conditioning systems, however, due to its low critical temperature (31.1 C), the heat rejection process has to take place in a gas cooler that operates above the critical pressure (73.8 bar), although the heat absorption process remains undergoing under the subcritical condition. As such, the CO 2 air conditioning systems virtually operate in a so-called transcritical cycle (Fig. 1). In 1993, Lorentzen and Pettersen [4,5] theoretically studied the CO 2 transcritical cycle and experimentally investigated a CO 2 refrigeration system for automobile air conditioning. Since then, a number of related studies have been reported [1 3,6 12]. One of the major challenges for CO 2 refrigeration systems is to improve the performance of heat exchangers. For this reason, some researchers have studied flow boiling heat transfer of CO 2 in tubes. For example, Bredesen [6], Høgaard and Jensen [7] measured heat transfer coefficients of flow boiling of CO 2 in horizontal tubes with different inner diameters (10.06, 7.00 mm), and they found that measured heat transfer coefficients were about twice as high as the prediction by the previous correlations for CFCs and HCFCs. Heat transfer coefficients measured by Rieberer and Halozan [8] on flow boiling of CO 2 in a horizontal tube with 15.0 mm diameter were higher than those for CFCs and HCFCs. Pettersen and Aarlin [9] attributed the reason why the evaporation heat transfer coefficient of CO 2 is higher than that of HCFC22 and HFC134a to the fact that CO 2 has extremely small surface tension. It is worth mentioning that most of these early works on flow boiling of CO 2 were performed for large diameter tubes. Significant progresses have recently been made toward the study of heat transfer and flow characteristics of CO 2 in mini/micro tubes. For example, Pettersen et al. [10] measured overall heat transfer coefficients and pressure drops of CO 2 flow boiling in a multi-port extruded tube, which had 25 circular channels, each with an inner diameter of mm and with a length of mm. It was found that heat transfer coefficient dropped significantly from a certain vapor quality upwards, and the discrepancies between correlations and measured values were substantial. Hihara and Tanaka [11] tested the boiling heat transfer coefficient and pressure drop of CO 2 in a horizontal smooth tube with 1.0 mm diameter, experimental results were compared with correlations and large discrepancies were also observed both for heat transfer

Koyama and Kuwahara [12] also conducted experiments of flow boiling of CO 2 in a small tube with 1.8 mm inner diameter and mm effective heating length. The above literature review indicates that although some studies of flow boiling of CO 2 in tubes have been reported, the problem is far from being well understood because very complicated phenomena are involved in the boiling process. Therefore, further experimental and theoretical investigations are essential. This paper reports on the studies of both local and the overall boiling and pressure drop characteristics of carbon dioxide flowing in mini channels. In addition, the effects of some important parameters on heat transfer and pressure drop behaviors are also examined. 2. Experimental apparatus and procedures The test loop used in this work is schematically shown in Fig. 2. It consisted of a CO 2 pump, a CO 2 accumulator, a relief valve, a flow meter, a pre-heater, an electrical heater, a test section, a cooler, a sub-cooler, a CO 2 liquid receiver, three mixing chambers, two differential pressure transducers, four absolute pressure transducers, and a couple of valves. Four absolute pressure transducers (PGR 200KA, the measuring error is less than ±0.05%) were used to measure the

Schematic diagram of the experimental loop. static pressure at both the inlet and outlet mixing chambers of the electrical heater, and at both the inlet and outlet mixing chambers of the test section. Two differential pressure transducers (the accuracy is ±0.25% for large gage DP15-4-N-3-S-4-A) were installed at both the ends and the middle of the test section to measure the pressure drops. Experiments were carried out using a test section with multi-port extruded aluminum channels as shown in Fig. 3. The effective length of the test section is mm, with the width and thickness of the test section 20.0 and 2.0 mm, respectively. The equivalent hydraulic channel diameter is 1.31 mm. Carbon dioxide was heated with hot water flowing inside the copper block that was attached on the outer side of the test section. Twelve heat flux sensors (75 mm 19 mm 0.4 mm with measuring error less than ±5%) were located between the copper block and the test section at the upper and lower surfaces to measure the local heat fluxes. The temperatures at the outer surface of the test section were measured using 24 K-type thermocouples embedded in the upper and lower surfaces along the length. Bulk mean temperatures of CO 2 at the inlet and outlet of the test section were measured using 2 K-type thermocouples, and the local bulk mean temperatures of CO 2 along the flow direction were determined based on the energy balance with the measured wall heat flux. The mass flow rate of CO 2 was measured using a mass flow rate meter (CX003H SS 200R).

Results and discussion Experiments were conducted by systematically varying the system pressure, the heat flux, the inlet temperature, and the mass velocity of CO 2. The parameters that were varied and their ranges are shown in Table Pressure, temperatures, heat flux, heat transfer coefficient and vapor quality Fig. 6 shows the variations in local pressure P, inner wall temperature T wi, bulk mean temperature of CO 2 T r heat flux at the inner wall q, heat transfer coefficient a and vapor quality x along the test section, as well as measured inlet and outlet temperature of CO 2 T rmes. The experimental data were collected under the condition of P ¼ 3:99 MPa, G ¼ 310:0 kg/m 2 s, T in ¼ 3:29 C and q ¼ 10:1 kw/m 2. It can be seen that the liquid CO 2 entered the test section and boiling began at about m away from the inlet of the test section. In the liquid phase region, the temperature of CO 2 increased with the axial distance, whereas in the two-phase region, it remained almost constant. As expected, the heat flux and the heat transfer coefficient in the twophase region were higher than those in the liquid phase region. It is also noted from Fig. 6 that vapor quality increased with the axial distance in the two-phase region. Pressure is seen to decrease very slowly with the axial distance, meaning that the pressure drop was rather small along Table 1 Tested parameters and their ranges Pressure P/(MPa) Temperature of CO 2 T r /( C) Heat flux q/(kw/m 2 ) Mass velocity G/(kg/m 2 s) Vapor quality x )3.08 to

Fig. 6 also indicates that the measured temperatures T rmes at both the inlet and outlet of the test section agree well with the values T r calculated using the local energy balance method, indicating that the calculated temperature of CO 2 is accurate. It is also noted that the inner wall temperature and the heat transfer coefficient exhibit certain fluctuations in the twophase region, which may be attributed to the fact that the heated copper blocks were not perfectly intimate contact with the test section during the experiments. Fig. 7 shows the variations in local pressure P, inner wall temperature T wi, the bulk mean temperature of CO 2 T r, heat flux at the inner wall q, heat transfer coefficient a and vapor quality x along the test section, as well as the measured inlet and outlet temperature of CO 2 T rmes. The corresponding operating condition is: P ¼ 4:58 MPa, G ¼ 283:0 kg/m 2 s, T in ¼ 11:49 C and q ¼ 11:1 kw/m 2. The main difference between Figs. 6 and 7 is that the CO 2 is two-phase at the inlet of test section (0 < x < 1), boiling ended at about m away from the inlet of test section, and it changed into vapor single-phase with increasing the temperature of CO 2.

It is also found that the heat flux and the heat transfer coefficient in the two-phase region are higher than that of in the vapor single-phase region, pressure drop is very small along the test section, the measured temperature T rmes agree well with the calculated temperature T r at the inlet and outlet of the test section The effect of mass velocity on heat transfer characteristics Fig. 8 illustrates local the inner wall temperature T wi, the bulk mean temperature of CO 2 T r, and heat transfer coefficient a along the test section for different mass velocities when pressure and heat flux were kept almost the same.

As shown in the Fig. 8, CO 2 is in liquid phase at the inlet and the early part of the test section, subcooled boiling occurs when the inner wall temperature exceeds the corresponding saturated temperature of CO 2 while the bulk mean temperature of CO 2 is lower than the saturated temperature, and then saturated boiling occurs as both the inner wall and CO 2 temperatures exceed the saturated temperature. Obviously, the effects of mass velocity on heat transfer characteristics in liquid phase and subcooled boiling regions are larger than that in the saturated boiling region. With the increase of the mass velocity, the temperatures of wall and CO 2 decrease in the liquid single-phase and subcooled boiling regions, the heat transfer coefficient increases in the liquid single-phase and saturated boiling regions, while the heat transfer coefficient decreases in the subcooled boiling region. The reason why the heat transfer coefficient decreases in the
14 1456 X. Huai et al. / Applied Thermal Engineering 24 (2004) subcooled boiling region is attributed to the fact that the increase of the mass velocity suppresses the subcooled boiling The effect of heat flux on heat transfer characteristics Fig. 9 shows the local inner wall temperature T wi, the bulk mean temperature of CO 2 T r, and the heat transfer coefficient a along the test section for different heat fluxes when pressure and mass velocity were kept almost the same. It can be seen that the higher the heat flux, the higher the temperatures of inner wall and CO 2 in the liquid phase region, the higher the heat transfer coefficient both in the liquid and two-phase regions, and the nearer the onset boiling point away 10 8 T wi 6 Temperature ( o C) T r q= 15.1 kw/m 2 q= 20.1 kw/m 2-2 (a) Distance (m) Heat transfer coefficient (W/m 2 K) q=15.1 k W /m 2 q=20.1 k W /m 2 (b) Distance (m) Fig. 9.

Therefore, increasing the heat flux properly is helpful for improving the flow boiling heat transfer characteristics Flow pattern Since the flow pattern was not observed in the present experiment, the flow patterns in this work were identified using the modified BakerÕs map [14].

16 1458 X. Huai et al. / Applied Thermal Engineering 24 (2004) Comparison between experimental data and correlations The measured local heat transfer coefficients in the two-phase region are compared with the predictions by four previous correlations, YoshidaÕ83, YoshidaÕ94, Yu and Tanaka et al. It is seen from Fig. 11 large discrepancies exist between the present experimental data and the previous predictions, and most of the previous correlations overestimate the experimental data as shown in Fig. 11. The main reason is probably because the flow characteristics of the present experiment differ from that of the correlations. As shown in the Fig. 10, the present experimental points are mainly in the range of slug flow, whereas all the correlations were mainly developed based on the experimental data for annular flow. Another reason leading to the discrepancies between the present experimental data and the previous correlations is attributed to the fact that the experimental conditions are different. For example the correlations by Yu and Yoshida are suitable for low pressure and large diameter tubes with nucleate boiling being predominant. However, in this Fig. 11. Comparison between the present experimental data and previous correlations for heat transfer coefficients.
17 X. Huai et al. / Applied Thermal Engineering 24 (2004) work the pressure is high and tube size is small. The two-phase flow coefficient F and nucleate boiling suppression factor S in the correlations maybe need to be modified for the present high pressure. Therefore, both the pressure and the diameter have significant effects on heat transfer characteristics of CO 2 flow boiling, and they should be considered carefully during practical applications. 5. Conclusion The pressure drop and heat transfer characteristics of flow boiling CO 2 in horizontal mini channels were investigated experimentally. A aluminum test section (500 mm long, 20 mm wide and 2 mm thick), which had 10 multi-port extruded circular channels and each with an inner diameter of 1.31 mm, was tested with pressures ranged from 3.99 to 5.38 MPa, inlet temperatures of CO 2 from )3.08 to C, heat fluxes from 10.1 to 20.1 kw/m 2, mass velocity from to kg/m 2 s, and vapor quality from 0 to 1. The experimental results indicate that heat transfer coefficient in the two-phase region is higher than that of in the single-phase region. It is also found that once dryout occurs, the wall temperature increases but the heat transfer coefficient decreases sharply. Both the mass velocity and the heat flux have significant effects on flow boiling heat transfer characteristics. Both a larger mass flux and a higher heat flux lead to a larger heat transfer coefficient. In addition, heat transfer correlations reported in the literature deviate significantly from the experimental data collected in this work. The results of this work are of significance for the design and optimization of carbon dioxide refrigeration systems. Appendix A.
